Recently, semi-stack mold have been developed for satisfying the various elements required in the mold industry. The mold is possible using with general-purpose injection molding machine by weight reduction through the improvement of the mold structure. In order to do that, tension core, spiral cooling system and half runner system were applied. It is effective for increased productivity and decreased of loss to the materials. However, the mold is required the filling balance in order to improve the quality and efficiency. Thus this study performed that optimum design and analysis of semi-stack mold for filling balance.

In recent, the demand of high-productivity injection mold increases because of the growth of international packaging market. The increase of productivity leads to the large-sized injection molding machine and peripheral devices. For solving this problem, the stack mold which is based on the existing machine and device is studied in advanced countries actively. In this study, as the preliminary research of stack mold development, the stack mold which has 2 Level ${\times}4$ Cavity is designed and manufactured. Besides, the motion and structural analysis are executed to verify the stability of developed stack mold.

The fuel cell is one of the promising environment-friendly energy sources for the next generation. The fuel cell provides good energy efficiency above 40% without pollution or noise. Different fuel cell types are usually distinguished by the kind of electrolyte. Among these, the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) has advantages of high power density. low operating temperature, relatively quick start-up, and rapid response to varying loads. The bipolar plate is a major component of the PEM fuel cell stack, and it takes a large portion of stack volume, weight and cost. In this study, as alternative materials for bipolar plate of PEM fuel cells, graphite composites were fabricated by compression molding and by machining. Graphite particles mixed with epoxy resin were used as the main substance to provide electric conductivity. Flow channels were fabricated by compression molding with design of experiments (DOE) to evaluate moldability. The cost for compression molding of graphite-composite bipolar plate was compared with machining cost to make the same bipolar plate.

Fiber reinforced plastic composites is widely used to make be lightening of aircraft and automotive owing to having high specific strength and specific modulus. And it is very important to know a charge shape in order to have good products in the compression molding. In particular, the product such as a bumper beam is composed of the random and unidirectional composite mats. Its deformation and charge shape are very different by stack type of random and unidirectional mats. In this paper, the characteristics of flow fronts such as a bulging phenomenon for step-type random/unidirectional composite mats and slip parameters are studied numerically. And the effects of viscosity ratio and stack type on the mold filling parameters are also discussed.

In recent, the demands of household cases and disposable products is increased significantly because a living standard of newly-emerging nations was risen. Therefore, multi-cavity mold and stack mold for the realization of high-productivity have been researched in forefront nations. In this paper, CAE analysis for minimizing the mold core deformation was performed. Finally, 64 cavities injection mold for molding cap which has the insert-type core was fabricated according to the result of CAE analysis.

Fiber reinforced composite materials are widely used in automotive industry to produce parts that are large, thin. lightweight. strong and stiff. It is very important to know a charge shape in order to have good products in the compression molding. In particular, the product such as a bumper beam is composed of the random and unidirectional fiber mats. This study analyzes numerically the characteristics of flow fronts such as a bulging phenomenon made by changing viscosity of random mat and unidirectional fiber mat and slip parameters. And it is discussed that the effect of ratio of viscosity A and stack type on mold filling parameters

In this study, as alternative materials fur bipolar plate of PEM fuel cells, graphite composites were fabricated by compression molding. Graphite particles mixed with epoxy resin were used as the main substance to provide electric conductivity. Flow channels were fabricated by compression molding, and design of experiments (DOE) was applied to the tests to evaluate moldability. Results showed that land width and channel depth were two significant factors for moldability, and channel width had little influence on the moldability.
